A connector has male and female housings (10, 20). A resilient member (50) is mounted in the female housing (20) for movement along the connecting direction of the housings (10, 20), and is biased forwardly toward the male housing (10) by springs (70) in the female housing (20). A front end (10a) of the male housing (10) pushes the resilient member (50) rearwardly during a connecting operation and resiliently compresses the springs (70). A lock arm (28) on the male housing (10) locks the housings (10, 20) together in properly connected state. However, the springs (70) expand resiliently to separate the housings (10, 20) if the correcting operation is interrupted prematurely. The female housing (20) has a cover (40) that can be moved rearwardly to deflect the lock arm (28) and to separate the housings (10, 20).
